Book of The Month discussion

Darley, the eldest daughter in the well-connected, old money Stockton family, followed her heart, trading her job and her inheritance for motherhood but giving up far too much in the process; Sasha, a middle-class New England girl, has married into the Brooklyn Heights family, and finds herself cast as the arriviste outsider; and Georgiana, the baby of the family, has fallen in love with someone she can’t have and must decide what kind of person she wants to be.

Shot through with the indulgent pleasures of life among New York’s one-percenters, Pineapple Street is an addictive, escapist novel that sparkles with wit. Full of recognizable, lovable—if fallible—characters, it’s about the peculiar unknowability of someone else’s family, the miles between the haves and have-nots, and the insanity of first love—all wrapped in a deliciously funny, sharply observed debut of family, love, and class.

wow, that's more POV than I was thinking I'd need. hopefully all the POV make sense soon

(view spoiler)[ interesting that Sasha didn't want to sign a prenup. I wonder why and what happened. ugh, I couldn't imagine those in laws or a husband so eerily close to them. it's weird that they have to keep the house and furniture the same and Georgina thinks it's crappy she needs to get her childhood junk out

Georgiana isn't my favorite character. I think she's kind of a jerk

Darley, I feel bad for her. she's been put in a tough position with her husband losing his job. and horrible her mom couldn't help her because of a center piece. Jeez (hide spoiler)]
